Ender-2 PSU case with 90mm fan and 2 XT60 connections by vapefreak

Last crawled date: 3 years, 1 month ago

I wanted a nice case for the Ender 2 PSU and found this case from Badbadtz.
This thing was nice looking and fully closed.
Then I thought about making the PSU more quiet, so I remixed it to use a 90mm fan (in my case I use a Noctua fan For example: http://amzn.to/2oKwVLt but mine does not have the rubber corners) Added some housing for the fan and some air outlets in the case.
I also added a second XT60 connection for heat bed use. (I added a mosfet to my ender-2).
I added some files, one already with supports and one version with only a hole for stock cable of ender 2 and the one like the original. One file as one piece and one "to glue" version. Two versions of the "to glue" fan case (1x supersnug fit, 1 normal fit - better for the linked fan).
In my case the case for the noctua is a so snug fit, that I didn't have to glue anything.
I think it looks awsome with this fan grill: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2102291

I used the following tape on my CR-10:http://amzn.to/2zXjJGu
This stuff is really great, no extra glue needed, 100% sticky to the printed parts, which come off really easily, even without destroying the tape.
On my Ender-2 I use a 1mm carbon plate coated with kapton tape: http://amzn.to/2nPggqi
Extra Tip
Another very hot tip is to use kapton tape! Here you get the glossy finish and perfect adhesion like with the blue tape! Look at this:
